Too Cheap to Buy an iPad? Join the Club and Get a PixelPad!

Want an iPad but don’t have the $499+ to spend on one? Don’t worry if you don’t because I certainly can’t afford one. For all of us less-than-rich folks, we might be able to enjoy something similar.. at a significantly lower price.

The PixelPad is a new product being offered at a much lower price compared to the iPad. People won’t have to break the bank because of their need for shiny, new electronics.

The PixelPad is made entirely from paper and requires no batteries or electricity so they’re ready to go straight out of the box.

On the back side of every sheet there are 4 App Icon Thumbnails that match the exact 72″x72″ dimensions of the iPad’s on-screen icons.
